This has to be one of the cutest photos I've ever seen!!!!!!Surprisingly, this one lets me pet her (which she never did before she went broody last year!) She will vehemently defend her chicks, but she seems to trust me, and only me.
Since its a little slow this morning, and who doesn't love chick pics, I'll share some of my favorite shots from last summer:
Does this compete maybe???
Close!! are they piggy backing? What are these? Pheasants?
Does this compete maybe???
Those do look swollen. Maybe post it in the what's wrong thread...These are not part of the super-cute chick series. These are "What's up with the huge feet??" pics. Here are two just-hatched Easter Eggers. The fluffy black/grey one is Amy. The damp one is Beth, or perhaps I should call her Sasquatch.
Beth karate-kicked out of the egg with lightning speed, courtesy of those enormous feet. How can this be? The chick is not bigger, just the feet. Can you see this, too? They almost look swollen. Should I be concerned?
Bourbon red turkeys, and yes they are piggy backing.
Nice!!! I wish I could have Turkeys, but I'm pushing my luck with chickens.....
I started with turkeys so I am used to them. I am just now getting into chickens.
Aw, thanks! One of my favorites too. I wished I had taken it landscape because the portrait version wasn't acceptable for the calendar this year.
Definitely adorable too!Does this compete maybe???
They do kinda look swollen but maybe its the breed? Those rival poults feetThese are not part of the super-cute chick series. These are "What's up with the huge feet??" pics.
